Chapter 591 WPG Bald Eagle's Inherited Skill! Preferential Treatment for Foreigners! What are Top-Tier Wines Like?
After receiving a response from CEO Vale Seaman, Melissa went directly to the conference room to relay the situation, and the representatives from the top pharmaceutical companies in China could only leave with regret.

Philip Joseph, the Xia Guo representative of Guanghui Pharmaceuticals, returned to the van. After the van drove out of the underground garage, Philip first raised the van's soundproof partition to separate the passenger compartment from the driver's seat.

Philip then put on a Bluetooth headset to make a VoIP call, thus better protecting the conversation from being eavesdropped on.

The purpose of developing the Little White Dove app at dawn was the same.

After the call connected, the other party asked first, "Did it succeed?"

Philip responded negatively, "I'm sorry, Nova Pharma rejected our offer, and there was absolutely no room for negotiation, not even if we wanted to raise the price."

"Nanova Pharmaceuticals' quota for nitroglycerin pills has most likely been reserved as well," the person on the other end of the phone speculated.

"Philip, find out when the next batch of nitroglycerin pills will be ready at dawn," the person on the other end of the phone instructed.

Philip responded, "I think it would be difficult to produce a second batch of nitroglycerin pills in the short term."

"Why?" the person on the other end of the phone asked.

“The core raw material in the heart-saving pill jointly developed by Nova Pharmaceuticals and Wugengtian is the vitality restoration factor, which is extracted from a plant medicine called Morinda officinalis,” Philip explained.

“However, according to my investigation, the number of Morinda officinalis plants grown at Tianjingyan during the Five Watches period is not large. Although the planting scale has been expanded, the corresponding Morinda officinalis plants were only planted last month,” Philip added.

“It takes five years for Morinda officinalis to mature. If Wugengtian doesn’t have any other special methods, I’m afraid it will be difficult to increase the production capacity of Jiuxin Pills in the short term, and at the same time, it will be impossible to determine the next production time.” Philip’s analysis was reasonable and well-founded.

"Try to find out the specific details as much as possible!" the person on the other end of the phone instructed.

“Understood,” Philip replied.

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone before the caller added, "Investigate Nova Pharmaceuticals thoroughly, especially after they produced the heart-saving pills at dawn. Keep a close eye on Nova Pharmaceuticals and see how they plan to handle this batch of heart-saving pills."

"If Nova Pharmaceuticals intends to send this batch of nitroglycerin pills back to Europe, report it immediately!" the person on the other end of the phone emphasized.

“Received,” Philip replied immediately.

Philip understood the subtext: if Wugengtian couldn't produce more heart pills in a short time, and their Bald Eagles didn't have the corresponding quota, what was the only option? Did it need to be stated explicitly?

What are the bald eagle's inherited skills?
The classic quote from the Bald Eagle: "My neighbor hoards food, I hoard guns; my neighbor is my granary!"

No nitroglycerin pills?
Still not selling?
The bald eagle smiled without saying a word!

Magic City.

Around 6 p.m., An Wuyang narrowly lost to the Russian foreigner.

After the two finished washing up and getting dressed, An Wuyang took Anna out to have dinner. They planned to go to Lujiazui to eat French food.

While I was on the road, Melissa called.

An Wuyang swiped the screen to answer the call, "Good evening, Ms. Foster, how can I help you?"

Melissa was somewhat puzzled. Why was An Wuyang being addressed so politely?

However, Melissa didn't think too much about it. She first explained that she had been cornered in her office by representatives from major overseas pharmaceutical giants, and then asked, "President An, when will you be able to produce the next batch of nitroglycerin pills?"

An Wuyang responded helplessly, "Our first batch of nitroglycerin pills hasn't even been produced yet!"

“Well…” Melissa was slightly embarrassed, and she followed up on An Wuyang’s topic by asking, “So when will the first batch of nitroglycerin pills be produced?”

"The relevant raw materials are already being processed, don't worry. I know that Christmas, the most important holiday in your Western world, is just around the corner, and the first batch of heart medicine will definitely be produced before the 23rd," An Wuyang explained.

Currently, both the new and old factory areas of Wugengtian have completed the transformation of intelligent production lines, and the corresponding production capacity is certainly sufficient.

It's just a mere 100,000 heart-saving pills. The old factory has an annual production capacity of 600 million solid pills, 50 million pills per month, and a daily production capacity of over 1.6 million pills.

Therefore, 100,000 heart-saving pills.
Even if it's just a change of production task for one of the three production lines in the old factory area, it would only take five or six hours at most to complete the corresponding production task.

If there are no unforeseen circumstances, all the nitroglycerin pills will be produced by tomorrow, the 22nd.

Melissa breathed a slight sigh of relief upon hearing An Wuyang's answer, but then brought up the old question again, "After the first batch of nitroglycerin pills is produced, when will the second batch be able to begin production?"

An Wuyang gave a negative answer, "It's not certain yet."

“We at Wugengtian really don’t have much Vitality Restoration Factor left. In addition, many of our products under Wugengtian require Vitality Restoration Factor, such as Liang Huanxi and lupus relief medication. Therefore, the production time of the second batch of Jiuxin Pills is temporarily uncertain,” An Wuyang explained in detail.

An Wuyang needs to wait for feedback from the capital city to see the demand for the heart medicine before deciding on the production schedule for the second batch.

After all, producing nitroglycerin pills isn't very profitable, is it?
Under the same conditions, both Double Happiness and lupus relief medication can actually earn more.

"If there's nothing else, I'm about to have dinner," An Wuyang said, indicating that he was about to hang up.

Melissa sighed helplessly, having received no answer. "Okay, I won't bother you any longer, Mr. An."

After hanging up the phone, the young foreigner casually asked, "Melissa Foster from Nova Pharma?"

An Wuyang responded affirmatively, "Yes!"

"Will you distribute this batch of heart-saving pills to various distributors, including overseas distributors?" the foreigner asked curiously.

An Wuyang answered in the negative, "No."

“In fact, the first batch of nitroglycerin pills has already been allocated,” An Wuyang explained in detail.

After listening, the foreigner nodded understandingly, "This kind of situation is also very common where we are."

An Wuyang chuckled, his words carrying a subtle undertone: "Is it possible that your side is the true ancestor?"

What was the Red Su Alliance, the predecessor of the Northern Bear Kingdom? Those who know, know.

Of course, this is just An Wuyang's joke and attempt to shift blame; similar things happen all over the world.

History often repeats itself in surprising ways.
"You only managed to keep two thousand of your quotas even after working until dawn?" the foreigner remarked with a touch of melancholy.

An Wuyang responded affirmatively, "Yes!"

An Wuyang added, "I can privately allocate 200 pills to your CLC Group, and your CLC Group also deserves credit for testing the effects of the heart-saving pills."

"Thank you, Mr. An!" The foreigner immediately expressed her gratitude happily, and even gave An Wuyang a long French kiss.

If we weren't currently in the van, the foreigner's gratitude would probably be even greater. "I'll send this message back first," the foreigner added.

The distant Northern Bear Kingdom.

After receiving Anna's message, Kashiev was slightly taken aback, because the CLC Group's allocation of heart medicine was only 200 pills at dawn?

That's way too little!

However, Anna sent more messages, including that the Xia Kingdom's government had centrally procured the quota of heart-saving pills, and that Wugengtian still had two thousand pills left for himself, etc.

Kashiev immediately understood the value of the 200 heart-saving pills, and he began to think about how to distribute them to maximize his benefits.

Given the good effects of the heart-saving pill
The heart-saving pills were tested in their Northern Bear Kingdom, with over a hundred people participating, and the vast majority of them showed good results.

In this situation, nitroglycerin is no longer just a simple medicine, but a special resource.

Kashiev wanted to gain more benefits from the heart medicine!

……

Lu Jiazui.

Maison Lameloise, a French restaurant, is located on the 68th floor of the Shanghai Center Building.

This French restaurant's flagship store is located in France and has a history of over a hundred years, and has always been run by the Lameloise family.

After being awarded three Michelin stars in 1998, the flagship store in France held that title for thirty consecutive years.

The Shanghai Center Tower branch opened in 2018. L'Émilion French Restaurant does not have the stubbornness of a century-old restaurant. Even though its philosophy is touted as 'tradition is innovation', after entering China, it actively integrated classic Burgundy flavors with Chinese elements to localize the cuisine.

That's excellent!
This demonstrates respect for the local food culture!

Too many people do not understand the concept that different regions have different food styles and eating habits.

There are always some silly netizens who like to boast online: "XX restaurant has conquered the world."
Most idiots who say such things have never even left the area.

Otherwise, given how vast the Xia Kingdom is, would people like every local cuisine and eating habits?

Even the cuisine of the Xia Kingdom varies from region to region. People in different regions have different taste preferences. Why can't we understand the differences in cuisine styles and eating habits between countries?

There's nothing wrong with praising and supporting local cuisines; in fact, many people want to experience different culinary styles.

But to think that a certain cuisine can conquer the world is a very low level of understanding.
As a branch of a century-old Michelin three-star restaurant, Les Méridien in Shanghai has done a great job of localizing its offerings, such as its classic bamboo tube dishes.
Correct!
Bamboo tube dishes!
A French restaurant serving dishes in bamboo tubes sounds rather odd, doesn't it?
But this is the localization and integration of Les Méruze.

However, Les Mérucci has its own interpretation of bamboo tube dishes. For example, French snails are placed in bamboo tubes and then paired with butter, licorice sauce and garlic mayonnaise, thus forming French-style bamboo tube roasted snails.

Although it is still essentially French-style baked snails, the cooking method has been adapted to local tastes, which is great, isn't it?
For example, lobster dumplings.

It uses the same cooking method as pan-fried dumplings, but replaces the filling with lobster meat paste, which is a localized fusion cooking method.

Of course, Les Méridien in Shanghai also retains traditional French dishes, such as the classic langoustines duet at the original store.

An Wuyang and the foreigner also ordered a bottle of wine from Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, a top brand in Burgundy.

When it comes to 'Romanée-Conti' wine, many people are actually not clear about its specifics.

Most people usually confuse the concepts of 'Mandeb-Conti' and 'Mandeb-Conti Estate'.

In fact, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (DRC) has a total of seven red wines, each representing one of DRC's seven Grand Cru vineyards.

The "Romanée-Conti wine" that appears most frequently in literary and film works should more accurately be the "Romanée-Conti Estate" wine under the brand "Romanée-Conti/DRC".

This vineyard, which shares its name with the brand, is the soul and symbol of the entire DRC winery. It covers an area of ​​less than two hectares and produces only about five thousand bottles a year.

Yes!

Under normal circumstances, the annual production is only a little over 5,000 bottles!

What if we encounter a natural disaster?
That would lead to a further decline in production.

With such limited production to supply consumers worldwide, coupled with its outstanding reputation, how could its price not be high?

Some people really need to think about whether ordinary people can afford and actually buy genuine Domaine de la Romanée-Conti wines.
For An Wuyang, he naturally chose the 'Romanée-Conti' wine, and specifically the 2008 vintage, which was quite good.

(↑The famous Domaine de la Romanée-Conti wine)
As for the price
Under normal circumstances, it should be around 200,000.

However, this is the Lémerucci French restaurant, so there's an extra charge, bringing the total price to 22.8 yuan.

Although the price is relatively high, one advantage of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti wines from Les Méridien is that they are guaranteed to be authentic!
After all, L'Émilion de la Méridien is also based in Burgundy and has been operating for over a century. Both they and Domaine de la Romanée-Conti are local powerhouses.

After the two finished ordering, the 2008 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti wine was first brought over by the waiter and given to An Wuyang for inspection.

A year label is placed on the bottleneck, corresponding to the number 2008, indicating that it is the year 2008.

There are two signatures on the lower right side of the label.

(↑Signature information)

The one above is: Henri-Frederic Roch, which means Henry Frederic Roch, representing the Leroy family;

The one below is: AdVillaine, full name: Aubert de Villaine, which translates to: Aubert de Villaine.

This person has been the manager of DRC winery since 1974.

Although the two signatures appear to be handwritten in the picture, they are actually printed.

Additionally, there is a corresponding number and vintage mark on the left side of the label, and above them is a cursive number indicating the winery's total production for that year.

(↑Year information + Number information + Total output for the year)
According to the information in the picture, the total production of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti wine in 2008 was only 3151 bottles, and this bottle is the 2523rd bottle.

Some extremely low-quality counterfeits don't even clearly convey production information or serial number information!

As for the miniature vineyard number, that's impossible to counterfeit.

Speaking of this wine number, An Wuyang recalled an interesting anecdote.
